I Love You

11

Meanwhile, Yibo was finding Xiao Zhan. It was already time to eat, yet Xiao Zhan couldn't be seen.

Yibo went to the sports storage room and saw Xiao Zhan rummaging through the items at the corner. Yibo walked up to Xiao Zhan. "What are you doing?"

Xiao Zhan jumped at the sudden voice then his jaw dropped as he ran towards the door but it closed on him. "Wang Yibo!" Xiao Zhan shouted as he tried opening the door.

Yibo frowned "What's wrong?" Xiao Zhan sighed as he sat down, still holding the door handle. "The door can't open from inside"

Yibo went to try and it was true. "Oops..." Yibo said, without a hint of regret. Instead, he was excited and happy that he has some alone time with Xiao Zhan.

"Are you hungry?" Yibo asked as he took out Xiao Zhan's favourite chocolate bar and waved it in front of him. Xiao Zhan stared at it with glistening eyes then clicked his tongue and turned his head away when he saw Yibo smirking.

"Who wants that?!" Xiao Zhan hmphed and Yibo opened the wrapper "Mn, smells nice..." Xiao Zhan immediately turned and as Yibo admired and peeled off the wrapper, Xiao Zhan wanted to give in.

Yibo was about to take a bite and Xiao Zhan wanted to snatch it so badly as he was hungry. Yibo saw Xiao Zhan's shoulders slumping and sighed "Just eat it."

"No" Xiao Zhan refused and Yibo felt hurt. "Do you hate me that much? It's fine if you refuse to hear my explanation but can you not reject a chocolate bar? Who knows how long we'll be locked in here!" Yibo raised his voice and Xiao Zhan flinched.

"I... I... I meant since we don't know how long we'll be here, you should just eat it" Xiao Zhan said, feeling a little upset. Yibo then realised Xiao Zhan was thinking of him.

"Zhan, sorry. I've already eaten. This is for you" Yibo said, pushing the chocolate out. Xiao Zhan bit his lower lip a little then walked towards Yibo and took it. "Thank you"

Yibo smiled and Xiao Zhan immediately turned away. Whatever was about to come up from the bottom of his heart should never come up.

Xiao Zhan took a few bites and turned abruptly when he heard Yibo's stomach growling. "Y-You...!" Xiao Zhan exclaimed then sighed. "I've eaten half. Take it"

Yibo shook his head "I'm not hungry" and Xiao Zhan smack his shoulder before stuffing it in his hand. "Eat it before you starve to death."

Yibo took a bite wherever Xiao Zhan previously bit then returned it "There, finish it." Xiao Zhan bit half of it then passed it back to Yibo.

Yibo smiled. Was that a few indirect kisses they just exchanged? Xiao Zhan sat on the gym mat as he was already feeling tired. Yibo went to sit beside him.

Xiao Zhan thought that Yibo sat a little too close and moved, but Yibo also moved. Finally, Xiao Zhan was trapped between Yibo and the wall. Xiao Zhan was about to get up when Yibo stopped him.

Xiao Zhan glanced at him then sat back down. "Zhan, would you please hear me out once?" Yibo asked sincerely, his hand still holding onto Xiao Zhan's hand.

Xiao Zhan wanted to deny it but he knew even if Yibo didn't explain himself, Xiao Zhan's heart would always stir because of Yibo. Xiao Zhan awkwardly took back his hand "F-Fine..."

Yibo smiled again then started. "One day, there was Boy B who confessed to Boy A. Over time, Boy A fell in love with Boy B. Boy A might have acted rude, took Boy B for granted or pretended he didn't care but he really did. Boy A was just prideful and felt that letting Boy B chase after him their whole lives is enough.

But one day, Boy C came. Boy B no longer says "I love you" to Boy A as much. Boy B no longer gives as much attention to Boy A. Boy B even started doing new things with Boy C.

Boy A was overclouded with jealousness and that stupid Boy A lets a girl influence him. The girl said she likes Boy C and if they work together, Boy A can get Boy B back.

Boy A was stupid too, letting the girl convince him. Boy A only had one goal in mind, to get Boy B back.

The girl started clinging on Boy A and trust me, Zhan. Boy A hated it. Boy A hated that the girl took away their morning alone time. Boy A hated that he had to bear the annoying girl being around him.

Boy A hated that the girl was the one having lunch with him. Boy A hated how Boy B stood up for Boy C, how Boy B cared for Boy C, how Boy B took care of Boy C's wounds.

Boy A wanted to stop and just spend his time with Boy B but each time the girl told Boy A about how Boy B will get jealous and come back to Boy A, Boy A will go along with it. Then one morning, Boy B did not appear in front of Boy A's door.

Boy A was hurt. No way is he going to let this happen. He waited for Boy B to leave the school and dragged him to his house. As they walked home, they got along like how they used to.

And when Boy B came out with just a towel around his waist, Boy A will never forget that image. The only one that made him fall in love, made his heart beat faster, made him want more.

Boy A knew he had to confess before Boy B leaves him. And he did. And they got together. Boy A felt like he was standing on top of the world. But Boy A is a very greedy teenager. He wanted Boy B.

He wanted to claim Boy B, wanted Boy B to be his and only his and often wanted to go further but Boy B didn't let him. And one day, the girl appeared again.

Boy A was stupid enough to believe the girl when the girl said he had to make Boy B jealous, which would make Boy B be willing to go further.

They planned and waited in the classroom then pretended to be doing erotic things. The girl said that Boy B would barge in to see that nothing was going on then want Boy A to claim him but that did not happen.

Instead, Boy B ran away and Boy A was at a lost. The girl then told him not to worry. Tomorrow they just have to put a kissing act and Boy B would drag Boy A away and jump on him.

Xiao Zhan, even I can't believe how dumb Boy A was! He actually believed it. But he did not know that the girl would kiss him for real! That wasn't part of the plan! When Boy A looked around, he couldn't find Boy B and he was so mad at the girl.

Zhan, believe me. I would never cheat on you. I love you so much. Only you can make my heart beat with love and want to touch you. I regret what I did so much. It was all an act to make you jealous and come back to me.

I know it sounds stupid and ridiculous but it's true! I only ever want to have my first kiss and the rest and my first time and all the other times after that with you!"

Xiao Zhan was having conflicted feelings. Yibo was saying that everything in the past was a lie, that he didn't want to betray Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan couldn't help but mutter "But in the end, you let that girl take your first kiss..."
